Okay, thanks so much for everyone's patience. Here we gooooooooooooooooo.
But I'm the tree! Name: Evgeni Morozov Personality Blurb: Born and bred to be the future ruler of harsh lands in the north, Evgeni is far from the iron-fisted, warmongering son his parents had in mind! Instead, Evgeni is a man of the people, a gentle soul who chooses to mingle with “the commoners” for the mere pleasure of their company. One on one interactions and problem solving are preferable to needless bloodshed and harm, always. Compassionate, helpful, and sometimes even a little naive, this stallion is the definition of the term “bleeding heart.” How do They Decorate the...Tree? Themselves? (aka Story):
“You don’t look like a prince!”
Turning his attention to the foals surrounding him, Evgeni let out a chuckle as he snapped his wings out, the act making him look large and perhaps even threatening. “No?” He gave a shake of his mane, one brow raised. “Well then, what do I look like?”
“A tree!” One of them chirped out, causing the others to giggle. The stallion looming over them let out a scoff. Mock offense then turned into a wide grin, Evgeni leaning his head down to speak to them. He used his wings to gently gather them closer, speaking in a hushed tone as his wings encircled the small group. “See, I don’t know if that’s right. After all, trees are usually dressed up for the holidays.” Resisting the urge to laugh as a filly playfully tugged at his braid, he clucked his tongue. “I don’t look very festive...”
Realization struck.
“Decorations! We have to dress him up!”
With a smile, the stallion tucked his wings as he lowered himself to the ground, watching as the foals scattered to find what they might consider good holiday decor. Babysitting... a challenging task, but one he was happy to do.
Winter is here! Let us decorate with joyous cheer! Name: Dora Boreas (means "gift of the north wind" ) Personality Blurb: Dora considers herself a trickster, though her "tricks" tend to be mild and more playful than anything. She loves to laugh and loves to play with other like-minded ponies. That said, she does have a temper and can get quite vengeful when she's angry. Her memory, however, is short, and most things are forgiven or forgotten before long. How do They Decorate the Tree? (aka Story): Dora hummed as she decorated her tree. The thing was taller than she was, and it was a good thing that she had wings otherwise this tree would only get half decorated. At this point, she had scattered ornaments in varying shades of blue, white, and silver all over her tree. Stepping back to look at it, she felt disappointed. Something was missing... but what?
She sighed and plopped down onto her rump, powdery snow sparkling around her from the impact. It looked so pretty...
Oh! That was it!
A whinny of happiness could be heard as she hopped back up and zipped this way and that, looking for the perfect thing to accomplish the vision in her head.
Finally finding the tinsel she had tucked away for some now forgotten reason, Dora found the end of the tinsel strand and trotted happily back to her tree. Launching into the air, she sighed as the pleasant cold wind caressed the feathers of her wings.
Starting at the top, she draped the tinsel around the tree until the whole thing sparkled and shimmered in the fading winter sun.
"Perfect," she breathed, admiring her work.

Don't dash through the snow now! There's decorating to be done! Name: Sven Personality Blurb: Carrots. If it was possible for food to be a personality, Sven's would simply be called: Carrots. Usually the Papa Bear of the friend group, always begrudgingly judging the silliness of others, Sven can easily be swayed to look the other way or join in the merriment with a simple offer of carrots. He will do or say anything you need him to if you're offering his favorite food, almost even to a fault. He can't help it he's always hungry! But when not being bribed by the orange delicious sticks, Sven is a loyal, friendly, warm hug. How do They Decorate the Tree? (aka Story): Winter was Sven's favorite season, and mostly due to the mountains of snow that would fall, blanketing the trees and grass in the most beautiful white landscape ever! And with the snow came Christmas, and with Christmas came decorating the tree. Everyone pitched it make it as big and full and beautiful as possible, and everyone's ideas were so different! Sven usually teamed up with the small squirrels and raccoons, who would run up and down his antlers to reach the taller parts of the tree, and they'd decorate with nuts and berries - anything they could find! When the tradition first started, Sven didn't have as many playmates or as big of a community, so his trees were usually just decorated up to where his mouth could reach, in nothing but half-eaten carrots. And then as the days passed those trees would get emptier and emptier, and his belly fuller and fuller. Now the trees had all sorts of wonderful things, and his friends were there to help! Of course they'd still have to remind him that the trees were to stay decorated until after Christmas, but...hey, he could always get more!
